Rogue River Quintet Stops Phoenix 50-28 By Hank Green Phoenix, Jan. 31. Rogue River high today continued to be in the undefeated class among schools in the county B con ference but yet Phoenix high, an underdog, could point with pride at holding the high-scoring Ashland Golf Course May Be Reactivated Ashland, Jan. 31 Possibility of the reactivation of the now de funct Ashland municipal golf course was seen here today fol lowing conferences by city and chamber of commerce officials and Elbert Williams, Monte, bello, Cal.. a professional golfer. Recent attempts to obtain someone to operate the course have been unavailing. Williams inspected the course. and said the fairways are in good condition. The greens would have to be reseeded, and if work were started immediately, the course would be ready for use by spring. Williams will confer with his partner, Merle Russell, formerly of Ashland, before making a decision. Those enterine in the discus sions included Bill McGce, cham ber of commerce secretary, Jim Busch. A. W. Woodward and Utilities Superintendent Elmer Biegel. Colored Ghosts At CP. Tonight Central Point, Jan. 31. The famous Colored Ghosts basket ball team will make its only ap pearance in the Medford area to night when it battles the Rogue River town team of the AAU Basketball league at the Central Point gym. This quintet made up of Ne gro stars who not only play the best in basketball but also pro vide loads of fun with their com edy, have won 61 out of 63 games this season. The Rogue best in the AAU league this River team is rated one of the season. Easiest Crocket -115 Z2z2Z Chieftains to a 50 to 28 win at the Phoenix gym last night. While there never was much doubt who would win, Phoenix was within three points of tying the game early in the second quarter and for about a minute looked as if it might overtake and pass the Rogues. However, the fast-break and superior speed spelled a Chiettain win. Man-Man Defense Phoenix employed a tight man- to-man deiense against Rogue Kiver and had the hometown boys been in good condition so they could run with the Chief tains, they might have kept the score even closer. The Pirates tired easier and frequent sub stitution was necessary also. Rogue River, had height and superior reach with the result the Pirates only once or twice controled a tipoff. The Chieftains employed their familiar zone defense during the first three quarters but in the fourth period changed to a man-to-man that stopped Phoenix's chances of making the game any closer. Rogue River misled many baskets by being kept off bal ance by Phoenix. Shooter Off Balance Phoenix often got close to the basket for shots through Rogue River's zone defense although more often than not the shoot er was enough off balance or tied up close to the basket to prevent him from getting a sure shot at the basket. Rogue River led at the first quarter 13 to 6, at the half 26 to 14, at the third period 37 to 20 and at the automatic time-out whistle 47 to 26. In the prelim the Rogue River junior varsity walloped Phoenix jayvees 48 to 19.

Jan. 31 U.R The Oregon state board of higher education has granted a school of physical education to Oregon State college, despite objections of Chancellor Paul C. Packer. The board yesterday approved an undergraduate major in physi cal education for the Corvallis school ending a long dispute be tween college and University of Oregon officials. The university which had a physical education school contended a similar school at Oregon State would be a du plication of activities and would be an additional financial bur den to the taxpayers. Oregon State officials claimed a degree in physical education was need ed so graduates could get coach ing and physical education teach ing JODS. Deferment Asked Dr. Packer asked that action be deferred on proposed curricu lum changes, including Oregon State's proposed major in physi cal education, until a "compre hensive study of curricular mat ters" could be presented at the June meeting of the board. He also asked for a board pol icy statement that "the board will not consider singly any rec ommendations which would ai fect curriculum allocations until such time as the board should or- der another comprehensive re-; view." ' i Such a policy, he said, would prevent an "impression in the public mind that there is a trend toward the abandonment of allo cations." Other Decisions The board also: 1. Left elementary teacher training to the three state col leges of education. 2. Left fee schedules unchang ed at Oregon State and the university. a. Approved a fire protection program at the university to cost the school $22,000 and the city of Eugene $14,000 for hose con-; nection lines. j 4. Accented gifts and grants to taling $73,050.

Hollywood is hiding its head in the sand and hoping TV will go away qui etly. Radio didn't, Dick Powell said, and tele vision won't, either. He said it won't be long before studios are climbing on the bandwagon with TV pro grams of their own. Movie itars have the same locks in their contracts to keep them off television that they once had to keep them off radio. And movie magnates are hurl ing the insults they flung at the wireless 20 years ago. "Television could be a superb medium for advertising and pub licizing the Hollywood product," Barney Balaban of Paramount says. "Just aonther way to sell soau. cigarettes or Madman Muntz," snorts Gradwell bears of United Artists. Moviemakers in the early '30s MacPHERSON Cerrespondent didn't think radio was here to stay, either, Powell said. And they did their darndest to see that it didn't. "I used to get $3,000 a week from Warner brothers," he re called, "for not being on the radio." (He had been getting $1,200 for being on.) Powell, now playing NBC's private eye, "Richard Diamond," has always had radio rights. But most stars were legally forbid den to play with the baby radio, just as iron-bound contracts now keep them off video. In All The Deals "It's been in all the deals for 10 years," Powell said. "I don't blame them. 1 wouldn't go on myself now. It's too imperfect adds 20 years, 20 pounds and 200 wrinkles." Eventually Warner brothers decided radio was going to last and jumped in all the way with an all-star show of its own. Pow ell said movies are bound to come to the same conclusions about TV. "And that's the only way you'll ever see movie stars on television, on programs the stu dios put on." he said. "They're scared of what they'll look like otherwise."
